On Saturday, July 1, 2017, a one-show screening event of the TV anime "My Hero Academia" 2nd season, 1st course "Yuuei Sports Festival Arc" (total 12 episodes) and a talk show "Hero Department 1-A Girls Gathering! was held. This time, we will report on the talk show held before the screening, where all the female cast members of the Hero Department 1-A of Yuuei High School gathered together for the first time.

The postrecording session was so heated that the audience's throats were choked up!

The moderator called for Ayane Sakura, who plays Ochako Reichi, Aoi Yuki, who plays Ume Frogblossom, Marina Inoue, who plays Hyakuman Momo, Eri Kitamura, who plays Sanna Ashido, Kei Madou, who plays Kyoka Mimirou, and Kaori Nazuka, who plays Toru Hagakure, to take the stage. The talk began with the cast members themselves talking about the appealing points they feel about each of the unique characters.

First, Reichi Ochako, played by Ms. Sakura, appeared on screen and talked about the recently broadcast scene of her confrontation with Bakugou Katsumi. According to Ms. Sakura, although most scenes with a lot of heat are recorded in one shot to avoid strain on the throat, both she and Nobuhiko Okamoto, who plays Katsumi Bakugou, were so passionate about the scene that their memories faded, and they re-recorded it several times at the staff's request, saying, "Please let me stick with it one more time. In the end, the voice he used when his throat was worn out was also used. "I was happy when they said it had a nice rawness to it," he said, sharing a behind-the-scenes story that showed the enthusiasm of the scene. In the scene where Ochako talks with her family after her confrontation with Bakugou, she said, "I am glad that I was able to put the hesitation of not being able to change my mind into my voice because I did not straddle the number of episodes.

Next was Ume Frogblower, played by Yuuki. She has the "personality" (*supernatural ability) of a frog, and Yuuki's appealing point is that she is a "frog. She talked about the difficulties of acting, saying, "I studied the calls of various frogs and tried to make the cutest voice I could, but it gradually became more and more like a toad, even though it was supposed to be an amagaeru (frog).

Ms. Inoue cited "pure culture" as an appealing point for Yaumann Hyakko. At first, I thought she would be a scary young lady with a sharp tongue, but she is very pure and honest. The naturalness of her upbringing is what makes her so appealing," she summarized. But in the end, she concluded, "But I guess the most appealing point is her boobs!　Yaoyoroppai! She drew laughter from the audience.
